'I completely missed this 1994 release which makes the last 13 years somewhat poorer as a result!...This collection of cantatas and theater music is simply stunning - rarely do we hear a composer of that age who even comes close to what Mozart was doing, but if any can make that claim, Linley certainly can... the freshness and invention - will strike you over and over...These period performances are sterling in concept and execution, and Hyperion's midprice Helios label makes them almost irresistible' (Audiophile, USA)
